The sea, sunshine, and sleuthing have given Bria Bartolucci a new lease on life since her husbands passing, and her southern Italian B&B is running as smoothly as her love life. But, just like the Amalfi Coast, some relationships can be rockyand some can be downright deadly . . .
After solving a couple of murders, Bria is now known in the village as the Italian Miss Marple, which could cause problems in her budding romance with the local police chief. But for now, all of Positano is abuzz with the homecoming of a star now that Carlotta Incantaro, a famous opera diva, is coming out of retirement to make one last public appearance.
Not all the locals are happy about Carlottas return and Bria soon begins to hear stories about the singers petty past. She destroyed one womans music career and tried to sabotage her rivals chances in a beauty pageant. With Carlotta staying at her bed and breakfast, Bria learns firsthand just how high-maintenance and demanding the woman can be. Even though Carlottas loyal pianist tries his best to smooth things over by blaming her nerves on her daughters upcoming wedding to a former soccer player, Bria senses something is terribly wrong.
And once again, Brias right. Carlottas swan song is just the beginning of the dramaafter the performance, a dead body is found in the piazza. Bria is quickly drawn into a tragedy worthy of any opera, uncovering a familys darkest secrets and deadly passions . . .
